I think its kinda like did the chip in the ball pass the invisible first down line - that way there is no doubt about a first down and we don't have to wait for the chain gang to make a measurement. I'm sure this is the first step in what is sure to be more accurate spotting of the ball. We just aren't quite there yet with tech to be able to determine "when" the ball is down. Which is actually interesting to think about in this scenario with a runner being down but having the ball cross the 1st down plane.
